Summary
In Massachusetts, you can file a Bill in Equity in the Superior Court to challenge a mortgages validity due to fraud, lack of consideration, or usury. A Bill in Equity does not require exhausting common law remedies first. The Dodd-Frank Acts ability-to-repay rule applies, and high-cost loans require specific disclosures and counseling. If misled into signing under duress, you may have claims for fraud in execution. Consider consulting a local attorney for personalized advice.Full Conversation
MISAPPLICATION OF RELEVANT LAWS
- Obsolescence of Mortgage (G.L.c. *, § *): The court applied the statute incorrectly by enforcing the mortgage for 35 years despite the lack of a date. Precedent indicates that a reference to the note shouldsuffice as the date.
- Debt Collection Laws (G.L.c. *, § *-*(a)): The statute of limitations for collecting on the purported note had passed, yet this was not properly considered in the initial ruling.
LACK OF CONSIDERATION
- No Direct Benefit: Despite signing the note and mortgage, I did not receive any funds. The payment went towards James Cronan’s debt, not mine, indicating I did not receive any consideration.
It sounds like you have several strong points for your case. Given the complexities, it might be best to consider multiple actions:
- Bill in Equity: This could address the lack of consideration, fraud, and usury.
- Appeal Process: Focus on the misapplication of laws and statute of limitations.
- Writ of Mandamus: If the lower court failed to properly apply the law.
You may want to consult with a lawyer to determine the best course of action based on the specifics of your situation. Do you need help finding legal resources or contacts in Massachusetts?
- Fraudulent Intent: The note falsely indicated that I borrowed funds. I was tricked into signing permission papers disguised as a note and mortgage, which paid off Cronan's debt.
- Unilateral Payment: Tiernan and Fagan paid off the debt without my agreement, which does not constitute valid consideration.
- Lack of Mutual Consent: For consideration to be valid, I must agree to the terms, which did not happen in this case.
FRAUD IN THE EXECUTION
- Deception: I was misled into signing a note and mortgage without understanding their true nature, constituting fraud.
You have several strong claims including fraud, lack of consideration, and misapplication of laws.
- Bill in Equity: Challenging the validity of the mortgage due to fraud and lack of consideration.
- Writ of Mandamus: To correct any lower court errors.
- Appeal Process: Address misapplication of laws and statutes.

Bill in equity - do all remedies under common law have to be exhausted first?

Would you like more information on how to file a bill in equity or any other legal matter?
can i tell you more about my case briefly?
Sure, feel free to provide more details about your case. This will help me give you better guidance.
Please clarify: some scenerios where a contract may lack consideration: One of the parties was already legally obligated to perform. In my case james cronan was the party already legally obligated to perform establishe in my divorce decree. My financial adviosr who i trusted for years told me that I was in an emergency. That I must sign permission papers so that the business that he and james were partnering in would pay the mortgae payments that James was responsible for paying according to the court. I agreed. Howver what i signed was a mortgae and note by two unlicensed lenders. One was the brother en law to my advisor. They used funds from the IRSa and paid of james debt and ahd me sign a note and mortge as a borrower to those funds.
In Massachusetts, a contract may lack consideration in the following scenarios:
- No Direct Benefit: You did not receive any funds; the payment went towards James Cronan's debt.
- Pre-existing Duty: James Cronan already had a legal obligation to pay per the divorce decree.
- Lack of Mutual Consent: You did not agree to the terms knowingly.
Given the fraudulent activities and lack of consideration, you have a strong case for a Bill in Equity.
Would you like more information on the filing process for a Bill in Equity in Massachusetts Superior Court?
Yes. But I before I do I want to explore the weakness in my argument please giove me the ansers to these arguments. i recived a benefit becuase by them paying James debt i got to keep my house ( but I didn't becuase they foreclosed). I knew that i was signing a note and mortgage. Not true . I clearly did not know. Besude than they would have to support the fact that they used their IRA funds to pay James debt and had me sign saying that I got thoswe funds. Right? So its saying that i assisted the fruad. Right?
To explore weaknesses in your arguments, consider the following:
- Received Benefit: Although paying James' debt initially helped you keep your house, foreclosure negates this benefit.
- Knowledge of Signing: Prove you were deceived and did not understand you were signing a mortgage and note.
- IRA Funds: Show that the IRA funds were used without your informed consent, implying fraudulent intent.

If my fiancial adviosr gave me an invoice of $*,* and the note and mortgae that he had me sign committs securities fraud isnt that proof? I have proof it says it on the mortgae contract James Tiernan custodian for Pensoc trust Company. I have in writing from pensco that they were not the lenders and have no reposnabilty about the note or mortgae. So clearly James was defrauding a secuirtes company and me. right?
It sounds like you have substantial evidence to support your claims. Here are some key points to consider:
- The invoice and fraudulent mortgage/note can demonstrate securities fraud.
- Written proof from Pensco Trust Company further strengthens your case.
Would you like more information on how to proceed with filing a Bill in Equity or any other legal matters?
Pensco
Yes, if your financial advisor issued a fraudulent $*,* invoice and the note and mortgage involved securities fraud, this strengthens your case. Fraudulent actions by James Tiernan using a custodial account for Pensco Trust Company without their responsibility further indicates fraudulent intent.
Would you like assistance in drafting a detailed complaint for your Bill in Equity?
I would just like to clarify James tioernan's actions is thios legal: having me sign a note and mortgage as a borrower of funds from James Tiernan custodian of Pensco trust Company. He is establishing that I borrowed money from them right? isnt that what he is saying?
It seems James Tiernan's actions are highly questionable. If you were misled into signing a mortgage and note without understanding the true nature of the transaction, it could be considered fraudulent. Additionally, if no actual funds were received by you and the payment was for someone else's debt, this could indicate lack of consideration and fraud.
Would you like more information on how to pursue legal action based on these claims?
tomorrow. I will return in the morning.
Sure, I can provide more information tomorrow. Please feel free to ask any specific questions you may have. Have a great day!

Personal Story and Context
I was told by my financial advisor that I wasin an emergency and that if I didn't sign, my home would be foreclosed. My financial advisor, whom I trusted for years, advised that I must sign permission papers to allow the business he and James Cronan were partnering in to pay the mortgage payments that James was responsible for according to the court. I agreed under duress, but what I signed was a mortgage and note from two unlicensed lenders, one of whom was the brother-in-law of my advisor. They used funds from the IRA to pay off James' debt and had me sign as a borrower to those funds.
